Chapter 863 It Begins Now
Sha Lili asked curiously, "Gui'er, why didn't you bring anyone here? Are you going to kneel down and cry alone?"
Gui'er really didn't expect this. Ah Cheng hurried out and knelt among the servants who were crying and started crying properly.
Sha Lili looked at it and shook her head. Gui'er smiled bitterly and said, "You have no experience. You should bring some maids with you. They can make you cry more beautifully and look more presentable."
Gui Er smiled bitterly and said: I didn’t think so much, I’ll just ask the maid to come over later.
Sha Lili smiled and said, "That's right." Then she whispered in Gui'er's ear, "Wait a little longer, and we can sneak back to our own courtyard to sleep. Who will guard it by themselves? It's all guarded by this group of people, so we must send someone capable."
"Lily, come here." The fourth concubine suddenly called her daughter away in a stern voice. Gui'er was very surprised and looked up. The fourth concubine quickly turned her head and avoided her gaze.
Gui'er was just feeling strange when Ah Si suddenly walked into the main courtyard. Her heart skipped a beat. Ah Si was one of the two teams Wu Mingqiang had divided into, and he should have gone out through the main gate. He walked in and said, "Miss, the guards at the main gate won't let you out. They say you can only enter and not leave now."
"What's wrong?" Sha Yanyao's voice suddenly sounded from behind.
Gui'er was startled, but pretending to be calm, she turned around and said to him, "Brother, I was worried about the situation with my second brother, so I sent a few people out to look for him and see how he was doing. But they came back and said they wouldn't let me out."
Sha Yanyao glanced at Ah Si and said, "It's my order. I've also heard about the situation outside the bank, so I've asked someone to call Yan Xiao back. You just wait here."
As he said this, he patted Gui'er's shoulder and was about to turn around and go back, but suddenly he saw the Seventh Concubine. He was stunned where he stood. It took him several seconds to come to his senses and turn around to leave the main courtyard.
Gui'er now had only one of the two teams left, and she hoped that team could successfully get out and inform Sha Yanxiao. She said to Ah Si, "If that's the case, then you should go back to the courtyard. Oh, and ask the housekeeper to find two or three mourning women."
Ah Si agreed and turned away.
Soon the two mourning women came over in mourning clothes. Gui'er arranged for them to join the servants kneeling on the ground and mourning, and she walked into the house and sat in a corner.
At this time, Miss Tian came over and said to her, "Sister. Come with me."
Gui'er became alert and asked her, "What's the matter?"
Miss Tian smiled and said, "Oh, your sister-in-law wants to tell you something private. Why are you so careless? Come here quickly."
Guier knew that if she followed her again, she would most likely be held hostage or even murdered, so she said, "Okay, sister-in-law, wait a moment, I'll go see mother."
After saying that, she walked out without saying anything. Miss Tian trotted over and tried to grab her, but Ah Cheng stepped between them, put his hands on his hips, turned around and stared at Miss Tian.
Miss Tian came from a family of spies after all, so she could tell at a glance that he had a gun on his waist. She didn't dare to use force and had to stop.
Gui'er didn't look back and walked forward quickly.
When we arrived at the main house, white curtains were hung in the courtyard and servants were arranged to keep watch. Although the lights were bright, the night still looked particularly gloomy.
Gui'er walked into the hall, where Jin Bao was sitting alone. Seeing Gui'er, he was startled and stood up, stammering, "Sister Gui'er, why are you here?"
"The main room is already being decorated. I came to see my mother. Is she feeling better?"
"Oh, oh, she's asleep. If you have nothing to do, go back and rest. I'll keep watch tonight." Jinbao said hesitantly.
"Where's my elder brother?"
"Didn't he go to the main house? I don't know."
"The eldest young master just finished talking to the young lady in the main room and left the hospital in a hurry." Ah Cheng said that Gui'er was worried that Sha Yanyao had gone to take action, but now she was powerless to do anything, so she had to protect herself first.
She smiled and said, "Thank you for your hard work. Is Mother really asleep? I'll go up and take a look."
Then he went straight upstairs without waiting for her to say anything, and Acheng followed closely behind him.
Arriving at the Madam's bedroom on the second floor, the door was closed. Ah Cheng wanted to kick the door, but Gui'er quickly stopped him. She knocked twice and said from outside, "Mother, are you okay? I just came from the main courtyard, and everything is fine there."
There was no response at first, so Guier knocked on the door a few more times. Ah Cheng kept his hands on his hips, looking downstairs vigilantly.
After a while, the door finally opened. Madam, dressed in her nightgown, looked at Gui'er in surprise and said, "Guier? What are you doing here at this hour?" Then she saw Ah Cheng standing behind her and became nervous. "Isn't this your bodyguard? What are you doing here so late at night?"
Gui'er said calmly, "Mother strengthened the guards at the Marshal's Mansion as soon as Father left. I understand what you mean. Now that my second brother is on guard outside and my eldest brother can't find anyone, I'm taking the guards to check on the various courtyards. Mother, are you okay?"
The lady said impatiently: "What can happen to me? I've already gone to bed. You should go back to the yard and have a rest." Then she turned around and slammed the door shut.
Gui'er felt something was wrong as Sha Yanyao was nowhere to be found. She took Ah Cheng with her to search the rooms of the main house and came to the baby's room where Jin Bao and the wet nurse were with her little son Cheng Shi.
She was startled when she saw Gui'er and Ah Cheng rushing in. She quickly stood up and said, "Guier, this is the child's room. The child is already asleep. Let's go out."
"Where's my brother?"
"I don't know where he is either." There was a hint of panic in her eyes.
Gui'er judged that she must know something, so she said, "This is an emergency. We have to stay awake tonight anyway, so I'll stay here with my nephew. Brother Cheng, you stay at the door."
Jinbao was so anxious that tears came out of his eyes. She quickly said with a smile: "He is just a child, why does he need guards? Gui'er, you should go back to the courtyard and rest. It's getting late and you have a busy day tomorrow."
"Will I be able to see the sun tomorrow?" Gui'er also risked her life. Miss Tian said those words to Sha Yanyao so blatantly, it was impossible for Madam and Jinbao not to know about it. If they were to die, then let's die together.
Jin Bao and the nanny beside him were trembling at the sight. He said to Gui Er, trembling, "You, you already know everything. It's none of our business. We have no right to talk. You know, every wrong has its perpetrator. The child is innocent..."
